The Effectiveness of Dermal Fillers
Elastin and production decreases as we age, resulting in dark under-eye circles, wrinkles, and hollow cheeks. Dermal fillers, safe for people 22 and older, work by replacing the collagen and elastin production lost with aging. By injecting fillers under the skin, they smooth fine lines and wrinkles. They also assist the body in creating more elastin and collagen, improving the skin’s appearance over time.
Dermal filler injections are quick, taking only a few minutes to one hour to complete. Common side effects include bruising or swelling, which resolve in a few days.
Ingredients and Composition
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid is usually found in the body. It helps add volume to the skin and retain moisture. It also boosts elasticity and supports skin structure, helping with collagen production. This dermal filler is popular because the results are reversible, natural-looking, and versatile.
Results from this treatment last six months to two years, and side effects include discomfort, bruising, swelling, and redness.
Calcium Hydroxyapatite Fillers
Calcium hydroxylapatite acts and looks like your natural skin. It contains calcium microspheres within a gel to stimulate collagen production and immediately increase volume. Results are longer-lasting and effectively restore lost volume to the cheeks.
The results can last three years for wrinkles and one year for contouring. Some side effects experienced include infection, discolouration, and infection.
Polylactic Acid Fillers
Polylactic fillers are biodegradable and biocompatible synthetic materials that help increase collagen production. Several treatments are required for long-lasting results. They work by causing the body to produce collagen, which gives the skin a more natural, younger appearance. Polylactic fillers also increase volume loss and improve skin texture.
Polylactic fillers have a two-year duration and can cause mild pain, redness, and swelling.
Polymethylmethacrylate Fillers (PMMA)
Made from synthetic materials that are not biodegradable, they contain microspheres suspended in collagen-based gels. They offer long-lasting results but are for severe facial wrinkles or contouring.
Autologous Fat Injections
This treatment harvests fat from one body part (through liposuction) and injects it into other areas to improve facial contours and restore volume. While it is more invasive, it does provide long-lasting and natural results.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
Deciding whether to go with dermal fillers involves careful examination of their benefits. Most fillers last from 6 to 18 months, with a one-year average.
The benefit of this non-invasive procedure is that it can be reversed or altered if you do not like the results. However, there are other advantages as well.
1. Anti-Aging
Dermal fillers are very effective in fighting against aging. They decrease the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes, under-eye hollows, and cheeks and assist with volume loss. Furthermore, they use natural ingredients to plump and hydrate the skin. Injections make the skin appear more youthful and rejuvenated.
2. Restores Volume
As we age, our skin decreases in elastin and collagen production, resulting in sagging or hollowed areas. Dermal fillers are useful in restoring lost volume in the cheeks and under eye hollows, providing a more refreshed appearance.
Dermal fillers are also helpful for facial contouring by defining specific areas of the face for a more sculpted, fuller appearance.
3. Effectiveness
Dermal fillers effectively improve the appearance of the face, creating a smoother, plumper, more natural appearance and reducing wrinkles.
4. Painless Procedure
Thanks to numbing creams and special needles, the procedure is virtually painless. Clients do not have to postpone social obligations or take time off work.
5. Minimally Invasive Treatments
Dermal fillers provide a superior option to people who desire a non-invasive treatment to enhance facial features or as a solution to aging. However, as mentioned, it is essential to consult a licensed practitioner who will ensure treatment aligns with your wishes and will assess your needs.
Before getting treatment, clients should consider their:
- Medical history
- Skin health
- Areas targeted and enhancement level
Overall, minor side effects are short-lived and quickly decrease. Serious issues are rare, making dermal fillers a safe option.
6. Immediate Results with Decreased Downtime
We thoroughly clean target areas and provide a topical anesthetic to numb the skin during the procedure. A precise technique injects fillers into the regions specified. The treatment is fast and only takes 30–45 minutes.
Clients notice an immediate improvement after their treatment. Any redness or discomfort subsides within a few days. Clients can also resume their regular daily routine within two hours of treatment.
